Recipe vegan and vegetarian fish – chips

How much is the Vish? Vegan and Vegan Fish & Chips – without fish!

Fish & Chips without fish? Some call it a sacrilege, others a brilliant invention. I have both vegetarian and vegan fish in the UK & Chips tried and must say: not bad at all! In London and in Hastings, I got the taste and then I let off steam in the local kitchen. The result are two recipes for vegetarian and vegan fish, or “Vish”, which are easy to imitate. To make the crust as golden brown and crispy as the traditional recipe, of course, it takes some practice. Only courage, it’s worth it!

Take the tofu out of the package, drain the liquid and wrap it with a cloth.

Gently squeeze the tofu to remove the remaining moisture.

Preheat the oven and prepare the fries according to the instructions. Finely chop the cucumbers and add to the vegan mayonnaise.

Put the beer in a bowl.

Add all other ingredients and mix until a smooth, liquid dough is obtained (the dough should be about the thickness and viscosity of a waffle dough – try with beer and flour until the dough resembles a waffle or pancake dough).

Cut the tofu into pieces about 1 cm thick.

Sprinkle nori leaves with lemon juice and season vigorously.

Trim nori leaves >Put the breadcrumbs on a plate.

First immerse the tofu pieces in the dough and then toss in breadcrumbs. Attention: even the narrow sides should be completely covered with the breading.

Roast in hot oil until golden brown, turn it over.

At the same time warm the peas.

Drain the fried, breaded tofu pieces on a kitchen towel.

Serve with the fries, peas, remoulade and fresh lemon slice.

Fish & Chips professional tips

The dough is particularly crispy and golden in both the vegan and vegetarian versions, if it is allowed to swell in the fridge for half an hour after being prepared and breaded.

The fish & Chips are also suitable for children – just replace the beer with alcohol-free beer or malt beer without alcohol.
